Rumor: Canon 4k super35 camera

I totally missed the announcement but it looks like this only records in 30fps not 24fps? huh? Tell me I'm missing something?
 
Have they said the specs and price or is it just 3rd party sites making it up?
Single 8.3 megapixel 2160×3840 Super-35 CMOS sensor (4K resolution) with Digic DV III processor
Canon XF codec (50Mbps 4:2:2 1080p30 MPEG2 MXF) records to two Compact Flash card slots
Canon Log gamma, SDI, compact body, Custom Presets and menus similar to Canon XF series
Exposure and focus control are completely manual — there is no AE or AF on either camera
Sold as a system, incl. LCD monitor / XLR audio unit, side grip, top handle, batt. & charger
Availability: Jan. 2012; Price: appx. $16,000 USD (for C300)
 
Well, for the price, I would choose an F3 over the C300 any day. Unless the the C300 has super incredible dynamic range. Oh well, let's see what scarlet has next.
 
So the DVINFO.net site says that the LANC port is useless other than triggering recording, but then goes on to say the web app can be used: "Focus, iris, and rec / pause may be controlled from a web browser with this unit, from a laptop, tablet computer or smart phone on set." Why would that be available to the web app and not the LANC port. Makes no sense.

People here are obsessed to be underwhelmed, no matter what happens!

At the presentation nobody has even said a word about specs or prices and yet these nonsense rumors keep coming up with everyone reading them as gospel. WTF!

Get a grip people.
 
those specs are all rumours, there is no way the ywould have it before an image of it displayed on the screen has been projected.

Yeh, but that's from 3rd party source. My question is have THEY said. Because so far they've just shown pictures and movies.
 
What does DVinfo has that nobody else does? NO live blog has mentioned anything yet. Everyone is still watching shorts!
